2 Timothy 4:6-8, 2 Corinthians 5:4What will it be when all life's toil is finished,

1 Thessalonians 4:17, Philippians 1:23And with Thee, Lord, we are for ever blest!
-
Romans 8:23, Philippians 1:29What will it be when all the strife is over,

1 John 3:2,3, Romans 8:29All like Thee, Lord, united by Thy side!

Romans 8:23-25, Philippians 2:27What will it be when sorrow's day is ended,

Psalms 119:147, Psalms 130:6What will it be? - In blest anticipation
Ephesians 5:19,20, Psalms 150:1-6E'en now our hearts outpour in praise to Thee;

Revelation 5:9,10, Revelation 22:3Then purer, sweeter, shall our praises be.
